Terracotta amphora (jar)

Terracotta amphora (jar). Culture: Greek, Attic. Dimensions: H. 10 9/16 in. (26.9 cm). Date: ca. 540 B.C..
Obverse and reverse, Herakles and the Nemean lion
Within the elongated shape of the amphora, the panel has been stretched proportionately to accommodate the pair of combatants. Although we know the outcome of the struggle, the artist characterized it effectively by showing man and lion as equally matched.
